Other highlights from the updated rankings list include Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza moving up to the No. 3 spot at middleweight after knocking out Chris Weidman this past Saturday at UFC 230. Also in the 185-pound class, Israel Adesanya moves up three spots to the number No. 6 ranking – after his first-round finish over Derek Brunson that same night. Weidman drops to the No. 5 spot, while Brunson falls to the No. 8 spot.

Despite rumblings of Colby Covington being stripped of his title in the welterweight division, “Chaos” still has the interim welterweight championship next to his name in the No. 1 spot. Also of note, the flyweight rankings are still intact despite the fact that the division is set to fold at the end of this year.

The rankings are generated by a select group of media members who pick active fighters on the UFC roster.
